I just swapped out my old Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2255 with a new Hauppauge WinTV-quadHD in WMC for Win7 and now I'm fighting with my remote.

I use a Harmony 650 remote and when I put the Hauppauge WinTV-quadHD into it, I lost a lot of my commands.

I've fiddle with this for a few hours and ended up adding the old WinTV-quadHD back into the remote and adding a Microsoft Windows Media Center device. That gets me most of the commands back, but there are still some missing.

Not sure what you mean by put the card into the remote. The card doesn't change how WMC reacts to a remote. For my Harmony 650 I use a WMC profile to control WMC The card did come with some little remote that I didn't use and is intended to be used if you use the Hauppauge software to run the tuner (rather than using WMC). If your 650 was controlling WMC properly before you should not have had to change anything.

Strange. Before to get my Harmony to work right, I used a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2255 the device to control. So when I got the new card, I removed the old device from the Harmony software and added the new one.

Now I'm curious;-Did you install WinTv from Hauppauge or just the drivers for the WinTV-quadHD when you swapped it out?-What device do you use in the Harmony software for the DVR? Can you give me the specific name?

It sounds like I did something different with my old setup then you did.

Now I'm confused. The only software you should have installed is the driver for Windows. WMC is what does everything else. I never used any Harmony DVR software, WMC is far superior for that purpose. Were you really using WMC before as your DVR software?

Yep I was using WMC, but when I installed the new tuner card, the default package from Hauppauge included WinTV. I think I'll purge out the full WintTV software and just replace it with the driver.

By the Harmony software, I meant the harmony remote software. When I set up the remote originally, I picked the WinTV-HVR-2255 as the device for the remote and it worked just fine. Likely because that device was fully WMC compliant. Now picking the WinTV-quadHD in the remote software doesn't let the remote fully control WMC.

So for your setup, what device do you have setup in your Harmoney 650 to control WMC?

I confirmed with Hauppauge that the remote that comes with WinTV-quadHD is not fully WMC compatible.

I ended up buying a cheap remote with ir receiver from amazon ( http://a.co/aRZg7ae ). I removed all of the Hauppauge devices from the Harmony remote and put in the Ortek IR device. Everything is good to go now.
